Background :
Tax, A1 just turned A2, at a midwest regional firm, 62. 6k salary

Offer :
BDO experienced associate, Tax, southeast region
65k +1k sign on bonus
I'm trying to counter offer for 67k

Reason to switch : Relocation and family. But current firm allow remote permanently. I'm just not sure if I will like permanent remote. So I'm not in a hurry to make a move.

Would you take the offer? And why?

Please don’t counter for 67k. Just ask for 70-72 to get to your target.

You will not feel that extra 2k. Agreed that you should ask at least 70k

Hi, I am an expat living in France and working as an IT consultant. I got an experience here that recruiters insist on disclosing my current salary. Is it a norm in France?

I refuse to tell how much I make now, and then recruiters say that they can't proceed with my application without this information. WDYT?

Anything before that was grad school and I haven’t kept in contact with any professors from over five years ago. What should I do? 😕
